After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Hornets snuck past the Suns 97-93. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
